火球照明愛爾蘭天空 '極罕見'隕石以十萬哩時速墜落地球

Meteorite hunters are on the look-out for space rock in Ireland, after a fireball was spotted blazing across the sky on Wednesday night.
在週三晚上發現一個燃燒的火球橫過天空中後,隕石獵人都在愛爾蘭瞭望尋找太空石。
People from across the country witnessed the spectacle, which happened at around 6pm.
這發生在下午6時左右,全國各地人們目擊那景象,。
It is thought the fireball was a space rock travelling at a 100,000 miles per hour, or the equivalent of a small atomic bomb blast in the skies.
被猜想火球是一件太空石,以10萬公里的速遊行,或相當於一個小型原子彈在天空爆炸。

David Moore of Astronomy Ireland said it was likely to have landed on the ground and not at sea as many witnesses who saw it along the coast said it was travelling inland.

'This is a huge event,' he said.
'There's a good chance we may end up finding this one.'
Meteorites are very valuable. The last one to land in Ireland in 1999 was sold online for up to $500 (£320) per gram.

One man in County Kildare who witnessed the fireball said he thought it was an aeroplane coming out of the sky.

Valentia Coastguard said it received several calls ranging from County Kerry, to the midlands and Northern Ireland over the sightings.
The Northern Ireland Coastguard took calls from people who believed the fireball had landed in Lough Neagh.
Joss Scott was driving along the Glenshane Pass when she spotted the fireball.

'It was a very bright green, with an orange trail coming from it,' she said.
'It was travelling at fantastic speed, very high up in the sky, and it was heading north.

'It then went behind these black clouds over the Sperrins, towards Dungiven, then there was this large orange flash, so I'm not sure if it landed somewhere around there.
'It was quite a spectacle,' she said.

Terry Moseley, from the Irish Astronomical Association, said such an occurrence was 'extremely rare' and said there was a chance that some of it may have survived and fallen to earth as a meteorite.
'What it probably was is a small asteroid, which is a piece of space rock which has collided with the earth and burned up at very high atmosphere,' he explained.
'It seems to have travelled over most of Ireland, roughly from south to north and there is a possibility that a meteorite fell at the end of that, possibly somewhere in County Armagh.'
